Hotchkiss: A Chronicle of an American SchoolHardcover, 1 May 1998

How has the Hotchkiss School managed to accommodate a hundred years of unprecedented change--a century during which horse-and-buggy trails have become less familiar than the fiery trails of space-bound vehicles, and Victorian propriety has yielded to unabashed self-expression?

Oh yes, also by following the golden rule: do not disturb the cherished memories of alumni--and, more recently, of alumnae as well.
